C. Pasquier et al., SYNTHESIS AND APPLICATION IN ENANTIOSELECTIVE HYDROGENATION OF NEW FREE AND CHROMIUM COMPLEXED AMINOPHOSPHINE-PHOSPHINITE LIGANDS, Tetrahedron : asymmetry, 9(2), 1998, pp. 193-196
A straightforward synthesis of new free and Cr(CO)(3) complexed AMPP l
igands (4-7) is described starting from (S)-indoline-2-carboxylic acid
. The ligands were applied successfully in the asymmetric hydrogenatio
n of ex-functionalized ketones i.e. a ketolactone 8, a ketoamide 9 and
an aminoketone 10 leading to the corresponding optically active alcoh
ols in 99, 97, and 99% ee respectively. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.
